POGGIO MEDEI 10

Umbria - Perugia - CITTA' DELLA PIEVE

Description:

PRIVATE STRUCTURE (only lease - CIR CODE: 054012LOTUR30383) Poggio Medei stands on the top of a gentle hill near Città della Pieve, between Tuscany and Umbria; it is a typical stone farmhouse set in a unique, picture-postcard landscape. Located just a few kilometres from the historic town centre of Città della Pieve, one of the most beautiful and fascinating towns in Italy, guests will re-live the atmosphere of times gone by, losing themselves in unique emotions that they will never forget, remembering this as one of their best vacations. The farmhouse has recently been renovated with typical materials of the area, combining tradition with modern comforts and creating a unique mix, exclusive to this location. Inside the property, the simple furnishings, with attention to detail, provide an intimate, homely and relaxing atmosphere with their subdued colours for those staying there. For added comfort, the spacious bedrooms on the first floor are all air conditioned. The house is perfect for reunions of old friends and families with children where privacy reigns supreme and where set-up areas in the park provide unique sensations. The garden contains many types of plants, tall trees and flowers typical of the area and just a few metres from the house, on a lower terrace, is the beautiful swimming pool. Enjoying an apéritif by the pool or dining under the pergola of kiwis will be an unforgettable experience, especially at sunset with views over the hills and little towns of Cetona and Sarteano, lit up like a nativity scene. Only 10 minutes away is Città della Pieve, the site during August of the folkloric Palio dei Terzieri, an archery competition that recalls, in bloodless form, the old caccie senesi (Sienese hunts) and is preceded by a procession of over 700 characters dressed in heavy medieval costumes. Not only Umbria therefore, but also Tuscany and, particularly, the province of Siena, have influenced this place which, given the proximity of motorways and railway stations, will prove to be the ideal base for travelling through the two regions and visiting places like Rome, Perugia, Orvieto, Assisi, Cortona, Montepulciano, Arezzo and many others.

POGGIO MEDEI HAS BEEN SUBJECTED TO A CHECK-UP BY A TECHNICAL RESPONSIBLE BEFORE THE BEGINNING OF THE SEASON, TO ENSURE CONSISTENCY OF THE DESCRIPTION, ACCESSORIES LISTED ON THIS PAGE AND THEIR PRESENT STATE OF OPERATION/MAINTENANCE, TO GUARANTEE QUALITY, CLEANLINESS AND COMFORTS TO ALL CLIENTS WHO WILL STAY HERE

Interior:

Poggio Medei has three floors. The main entrance is located in the area of the portico and leads, on the left, to the dining room and sitting room with fireplace and TV area. Continuing on, you come to the kitchen with access to the garden facing the outdoor dining area with wood oven and barbecue. To the right of the main entrance is a double bedroom (with divisible bed) and a bathroom with shower. An internal staircase leads up to the first floor with two double bedrooms sharing a bathroom with tub and two double bedrooms with ensuite bathroom with shower. From the ground floor, a spiral staircase leads down to the basement with a large open space organised as a fitness area, and a corner dedicated to children's games; in this area is a large glass door overlooking the pool side of the garden .

Park:

Poggio Medei, set on the top of a typical Umbrian hill, is surrounded by a garden of 8000 sq m, completely fenced-in and bordered along the perimeter by lush hedges to guarantee privacy without depriving you of the picture-postcard view of the medieval borgo of Città della Pieve and, on the other side, a breathtaking view of the valley up to the towns of Cetona and Sarteano. After the automatic entrance gate, a drive through an olive grove leads to a covered parking area, conveniently located in the immediate vicinity of the house entrance. Here you are welcomed by a garden of glorious colours, bushes of Mediterranean herbs, cedars of Lebanon, olive trees and other species typical of the area. Completing it all is a beautiful lawn with various relaxing areas, such as the large, shady pergola which communicates with the kitchen and is equipped with comfortable iron furniture and a barbecue where you can dine outside, facing a unique view. Within the park is an attractive swimming pool complete with furniture for you to enjoy the silence and the sun that kisses this property. Please notice that photos are taken in spring, therefore flower blossoming, and the colours of the gardens' grass could be different at the moment of your arrival at the villa.

Swimming Pool:

The pool is located in the lower part of the property, 40 m from the house and reached across the garden down a flight of stone steps. The rectangular pool, lined in sand-coloured PVC which contrasts with the terracotta of the surrounding solarium area, measures 6x12 metres with a depth of 1.50 metre and has chlorine purification and Roman steps for acccess to the water. There is lighting both inside the pool and in the solarium area where you can spend relaxing evenings sipping an apéritif. The solarium area, equipped with comfortable sunbeds and a solar shower, is shaded by old lime trees and a large beach umbrella. The pool is open from the last Saturday of April to the October.

Location and distances


Poggio Medei is located 2 Km from Città della Pieve, a locality full of history, culture and tradition, and can be reached by car along the main road or on foot. Museums, monuments, cathedrals, churches and historic buildings such as the Cathedral of San Gervasio and San Protasio or the Palazzo della Corgna, the largest of the stately homes, enhance the old town centre which is spread out on the top of a hill and can be visited along tourist itineraries. Good cuisine and local products also play an important role as the area is, in fact, famous for the cultivation of saffron (ever since the thirteenth century) and for its wine, Colli del Trasimeno DOC, and olive oil, Colli Orvietani DOP. Città della Pieve contains all services and shops and its location makes it a convenient starting point for many places of interest, such as the Etruscan towns of southern Tuscany, Chiusi, Sarteano and Cetona, the splendid Umbrian towns of Orvieto, Perugia and Assisi, Lake Trasimeno and the Val d'Orcia, natural heritage without equal, and the famous spa resorts of San Casciano dei Bagni and Chianciano Terme. Fabro and Chiusi, both 20 minutes drive away, are connected to the A1 motorway while their railway stations are on the Rome – Florence line.
